The diffraction-line broadening exhibited by three different Pb3O4 phases was studied at ambient and elevated pressures. The broadening indicates strongly anisotropic microstrain, which was interpreted in terms of (local) stress variations in association with strongly anisotropic elastic properties. In particular, making use of the anisotropic compressibility of Pb3O4 determined on the basis of the present data, the pressure fluctuations in the employed diamond anvil cell due to non-hydrostatic conditions of the sample were estimated.
